Reviews on Hotel Agora Amsterdam
In partnership with
Cons: Very noisey at night
Cons: Although the room was clean it was tired looking. in our 3 night/4 day stay our room was not cleaned once. now i'm not expecting them to come in and do a full blown polish and hoover but the bins were overflowing by the time we'd left and we'd had to get some new toilet roll from a cupboard on the landing when ours ran out. this may have been due to the fact that we stayed over new years eve and the cleaner was on holiday etc but it wasn't very good. the breakfast was also awful! the first day we went down there were no knives so i had to spread my butter and jam with a teaspoon. the only fruit that was there were a load of apples, there were only two types of cereals, brown or white bread with an incredibly slow toaster and some small fruit pastries. we skipped it the 2nd day and then on the 3rd day we tried again and there was no fruit, no pastries and this time there were knives but no tea spoons! if you're going to book this hotel don't expect the ritz and i wouldn't bother with the breakfast, but it really is a great base and the staff were lovely so if you're not looking for much and aren't planning on staying indoors much then go for it!
Cons: When we need to ask something to the staff, noboday at the reception. moreover, at the morning we could not eat breakfast because noboday was in the reception, even the cafe space was locked!
the morning receptionist did not know anything about this matter and could not help them. we wanted the last night to be refund. only the manager can decide about this. unfortunately she was not reachable before 4.00 pm.
now, 5 days later, no reply from her. finally i manage to find number of another hotel where i found her and she was almost laughing at me and telling that she had not had the time to look at it.
over all, it was horrible experience and we will never book this hotel again.
free wifi, breakfast included in price.
Cons: Loud pounding music from 10pm until 5am.....one night during my stay. many complaints from hotel guests. no elevator, if you have large or a lot of luggage, getting up the small, narrow stairs will be difficult. no screens on windows, mosquitoe bites each night.
Cons: Public areas in need of updating. room window had secondary glazing, but 1 outside pane was broken.
Cons: Cleanliness of overall hotel poor, needs redocorating. not cheap and quite loud as next door to a nightclub
Cons: Damp and smelly stairway to the room, all carpets were well worn and dirty, hotel badly in need of tlc (refurbishment).
Cons: None as such to speak of....
Cons: A bit cramped and damp smelling.
